Characteristics of psychological activity
Extreme fear and confusion.
The Ryster syndrome is acute, and patients are often in a relatively normal state at the first minute and are subject to severe headaches, frequent vomiting and mental disorders. Unpreparedly plunged into such a serious health crisis, full of primitive fear. In a state of confusion, where the body is quickly out of control and unconscious, the patient does not know what a terrible illness he has, nor how it will develop, as if he would be wrapped in a thick fog and spent every minute.
The anxiety is rising.
As the disease progresses, there may be convulsions, comas, etc., and family members are sad and anxious. Even with a slight sense of consciousness, patients can feel dangerous signals in the atmosphere of tension around them, with a sharp rise in anxiety for life. In addition, the follow-up of long treatment cycles and frequent examination monitoring leave patients in a state of constant stress, fearing that the results of each examination will bring even worse news, with anxiety as if it were an abdominal anthrax.
Self-awareness disorder.
The neuropsychiatric symptoms of the disease, such as cognitive disorders and behavioural anomalies, give rise to doubts about the patient at the recovery stage. Used to be familiar with character and behaviour patterns, it seems strange that patients may be ashamed of, blame themselves for, and lose their sense of self-identification in the confused and painful cognitive dilemma of “I am no longer the old me”.
Psychological assessment
Clinical interview assessment
In-depth interviews with patients and their families are essential. Ask about the specific feelings and memories of the onset of the disease, understand the core concerns of the patient, and observe the attitude, use of words and profile of the patient ‘ s stress environment when the family describes the condition. Seize emotional keywords in the patient’s speech, such as “fear” and “negative”, and outline the psychological profile.
Psychometric support
The hospital anxiety and depression table (HADS) was selected to screen patients for anxiety and depression. Despite the complexity of the Lyle syndrome, these two underlying emotional dimensions reflect the patient ‘ s mental state baseline. For children, the screening form for anxiety disorders (SCARED) can be used to accurately identify emotional disorders and provide quantitative support for subsequent targeted interventions.
Psychological prescription
Communication and accommodation
Doctors are required to inform patients and their families of the current state of the Lysyx syndrome in an easy-to-understand and calm manner. A simple metaphor explains the cause of the disease, the pattern of development, for example, by comparing the body immune system to an unbalanced little universe, by making it clear to people that the disease is not unpredictable, and by alleviating the fear of the unknown. The regular inspection of the house, in which the signs of improvement are shared, can be a “concertative pill” to appease the patient’s anxiety, even if it is a small improvement.
Psychological support for cognitive reconstruction
Psychologists intervene to provide cognitive behaviour therapy for patients with a sense of rehabilitation and rehabilitation. To guide patients to face the onset of a disease, to view a deformity as a disease rather than a defect of their own, to encourage the writing of a rehabilitation journal, to record a physical and psychological growth, to recreate positive self-awareness and to regain confidence that “I can recover, I am well”.
Strengthening social support
Family members are encouraged to give care, to share their daily experiences, to play music videos that are popular with the patients, and to create a comfortable family environment. At the school or workplace level, they coordinate the retention of their studies and posts, organize the delivery of cards to their classmates and colleagues, so that they feel that they have not been “forsworn” by society and so that they can improve the quality and expectations of their return to normal life.
